Pottery with a Special Guest

 Mr. Hansen, Landen's grandpa, has come into our classroom three times over the last couple of weeks to teach us about his art, pottery.
He helped us make pinch pots and hearts out of stonewear clay.  Then he brought our pieces home to fire in his kiln.  Then he brought them back to school so we could glaze them.  Then he brought them BACK home again to refire the glazewear!

Finally, he brought them back for us to keep last week.  I can't thank him enough for his time, his knowledge, his donation of supplies, and his gentle instruction.  What a wonderful teacher and grandpa!
